Producer Michael Luceri, who had also edited the film, finished it.ġ5 years in the making and 3 deaths later, The Evil Within finally released. With the colouring and editing not completed. Unfortunately, this was before the film was finished. He died in 2015 due to an alleged addiction to Methamphetamine. Getty continued to work on the film for many years after, creating his own special effects and trying to perfect the film. The production went through a number of issues, including budgetary complications, lawsuits and conflicts with the cast and crew. He was heavily involved in the creation of many of the elaborate sets, animatronics and other effects. Filming began in 2002, and the film was shot largely in Getty’s own mansion. The film was inspired by the childhood nightmares of Getty. It was released in 2017, two years after Getty’s death in 2015. The film was a personal project of Getty, who largely self-financed the estimated cost of four to six million dollars of the production. Written and directed by Andrew Getty, The Evil Within took 15 years to complete. Before I can even get to the film, I must briefly mention its problematic production. However, delve deeper and you’ll discover something genuinely fascinating. On the surface, The Evil Within looks like just another horror movie. “What makes you think the ride is over? What makes you think it’s ever going to end?”
